I enjoyed seeing you try something different Frank. I studied the second one for some time trying to figure out how you lit it. Confusing was having reflection on the back side.🤔 Never figured it out.
When I shoot jewelry I use either a white or black acrylic sheet, keeps the reflections smooth and sharp. Had part is keeping the acrylic from scratching.
Jim, I use a clear acrylic sheets on some of my shots. But for these shots I used some packaging material. I forgot what I ordered, but when I saw the packaging I knew I would use it. It is cardboard with a silver not use if it is aluminum coating but it has a sculptured texture to it. So it gave it a muted reflection.
